In her novel Jazz, Toni Morrison, the African American Nobel laureate novelist, addresses how African American women confront different discriminations (1992). Harlem is shown as a racially and socially segregated location in the novel, which this article examines using the qualitative technique. Jazz tells the stories of African American women who moved to Harlem in the early twentieth century and their hardships. African American female protagonists in this book are haunted by memories of slavery and face injustice within their community because of their race. It is established throughout the book that Harlem, which is referred to as “the City,” is the relational location in which black women are subjected to and alienated by the interlocking oppressions of their race, class, and gender.
